  • CQ419 - 11 from Councillor Gerry Ryan
    CQ419 - 11 from Councillor Gerry Ryan LE Can the Leader reassure all Elected Members following the recent scandal of phone and email hacking that none of their Council phones or email accounts has been subject to such abuses. Reply We have no evidence or reported incidents of phone or email hacking. CQ421 - 11 from Councillor Eddy Arram LE If the reserves of the Council were at their August 2005 level would the Council have been in a position to offer help to those residents and businesses that had been affected by the wanton damage caused during the riots to the level that in fact did. Reply Our reserves for the year ended 2005/06 were £4.530m compared to the current reserves balance of £11.597m. This is clearly substantially better than the all time low of a few hundred thousand created by the Labour Administration. It is estimated that the full cost of the damage incurred by Croydon will be met by Government funding. The Government has made available, nationally;- ¾ A £10 million Recovery Scheme to assist Councils with the immediate costs of making their areas safe and clean again, and ¾ a £20 million High Street Support Scheme to both assist local firms that were affected by the riots to rebuild their business and to rebuild community confidence and hence trade in the areas in which they are located. Croydon has an indicative allocation of £2m from this fund. At an early stage the Council identified and put at risk £100,000 to help those families directly impacted by the recent civil unrest in the borough.

Introduction 1. The Culture Network meeting raised a number important issues and concerns that need to be addressed about the implementation of the award of Borough of Culture 2023 status. This is difficult as the two planning meetings that were announced would take place in March and April are not going ahead because of the coronavirus emergency. That does not mean that debate should stop. Many people involved in the Network will have more time to think about it as their events have been cancelled. Debate can take place by email, telephone, Skype, Zoom, etc. Several of the issues and concerns relate to overall aims of being Borough of Culture, as well as practical considerations. 2. There are several tensions and contradictions within the proposals that clearly could not be ironed out at the time the bid was submitted to the Mayor of London.

    Spatial Planning Development & Environment Bernard Weatherill House 8 Mint Walk Croydon CR0 1EA Please ask for/reply to Therese Finn Tel: 02084071385 [email protected] 21 January 2015 If you are a tenant of this property please ensure that the owner, your landlord or letting agent sees this letter or forward a copy of this letter to them. Alterations to the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 (as amended) through the serving of an Article 4 Direction to the Chatsworth Road Conservation Area Dear owner or occupier, I am writing to inform you of proposed local changes to the planning regulations which will affect your permitted development rights. Permitted development rights derive from a general planning permission granted from Central Government and allow homeowners to make certain changes to their properties without the need to apply for planning permission from the local planning authority. Local planning authorities have powers under Article 4 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995, as amended; to remove certain permitted development rights. An Article 4 Direction does not prevent the development to which it applies, but instead requires that planning permission is first obtained from the local planning authority for that development. The need to serve an Article 4 Direction to the Chatsworth Road Conservation Area was established through the production of the Chatsworth Road Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan Supplementary Planning Document that was adopted in April 2013. This document identified threats to the conservation area’s special character as a result of minor development, some of which can be carried out under permitted development rights.

  • Corporate Waste Recycling Improvement in the Croydon Council
    Corporate Waste Recycling Improvement in the Croydon Council Alex Bell Julia MacLeod Dan Murray J. Nicholas Papa May 1, 2015 Worcester Polytechnic Institute Professor Dominic Golding and Professor Patricia Stapleton IQP Corporate Waste Recycling Improvement In the Croydon Council An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science By Alex Bell Julia MacLeod Dan Murray J. Nicholas Papa Date: May 1 2015 Report Submitted to: Malcolm Bell Croydon Council Bob Fiddik Croydon Council Professors Dominic Golding and Patricia Stapleton Worcester Polytechnic Institute This report represents the work of WPI undergraduate students to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the project programs at WPI, please see http://www.wpi.edu/academics/ugradstudies/project-learning.html Abstract The goal of this project was to evaluate the status of current recycling practices within the Croydon Council offices and provide recommendations for improved strategies. We assessed the perspectives and practices of Council employees through a staff survey, in-person interviews, and onsite observations. We assessed recycling in other boroughs to identify best practices. Based on our findings, we recommended the Council explore ways to enhance existing communication about recycling, improve labeling in recycling areas, and reinvigorate its recycling champion network. We also recommend the Council examine further the use of compactors and color-coded bags for different waste streams. i Acknowledgements Our team would like to thank a few key individuals for their help and support for the duration of our project.
